Christiana Pena visiting St Mark's
Mon 22 Apr 2024On Friday, Christiana Pena visited St Mark's as part of our #INSPIRE programme. Christiana told us that she felt God’s calling on her life when she was young. She trained to be a nurse and then went to work for the Leprosy Mission as a missionary for nearly three years.
She is now working for the NHS as a manager of a virtual ward where patients live at home and she helps look after them from an office.
